Cervical Cancer Vaccination
About this treatment
We use a vaccine called Gardasil 9 to protect against the nine main types of the HPV virus, which together are responsible for over 90% of cervical cancers in this country.
At Illuminate we provide this vaccination to women who have not been vaccinated as teenagers under the NHS, or who chose not to have the vaccination when it was offered to them. It is also suitable for men to protect them from other types of cancer caused by the HPV virus.
The HPV vaccine protects against the 9 main types of HPV which together are responsible for about 90% of cervical cancers in the UK. It can also protect against the strains of HPV that cause most cases of genital warts.
Injections are given into the muscle of your upper arm.
You may experience mild side effects including discomfort or redness in the arm where the injection was given, fever headache and mild nausea.
It is suitable for any woman who has not already been vaccinated. It is not suitable for women who are pregnant or who have had a confirmed anaphylactic reaction (severe allergic reaction) to a previous dose of the HPV vaccine or any of its ingredients.
